Antitrust And International Regulatory Federalism, Andrew T. Guzman Dec 2000

Antitrust And International Regulatory Federalism, Andrew T. Guzman

Andrew T Guzman

In this Essay, Andrew Guzman proposes internationalization of antitrust law to supplant current methods of antitrust regulation across national borders. Specifically, instead of relying on local regulation, bilateral agreements between states, or a choice-of-law rule for antitrust enforcement, countries should adopt universal substantive standards. Moreover, Guzman recommends the World Trade Organization (WTO), which already employs a dispute resolution mechanism, as the governing forum for international antitrust issues. There, states can negotiate transfer payments in one international transaction to achieve agreement in another. Upon evaluating Professor Eleanor Fox’s proposal of a stand-alone World Competition Forum that would specialize exclusively in international …

An “Issue Checklist” For The Aba Commission On Multidisciplinary Practice, Laurel S. Terry Dec 2000

An “Issue Checklist” For The Aba Commission On Multidisciplinary Practice, Laurel S. Terry

Laurel S. Terry

Appendix 2 to Gary Munneke and Ann McNaughton's book about MDPs was the "Issue Checklist" that Professor Laurel Terry prepared for the ABA Commission on Multidisciplinary Practice (the ABA MDP Commission). This checklist identified the issues that Professor Terry believed the Commission should consider as it evaluated whether to amend ABA Model Rule of Professional Conduct 5.4 to permit MDPs.

Although this Issue Checklist was prepared in 1999, many of the issues it identifies remain relevant when considering issues related to alternative business structures (ABS) and alternative law practice structures (ALPS). It is relevant to the work of groups such …

Teaching Restitution.Pdf, Candace Kovacic-Fleischer Dec 2000

Teaching Restitution.Pdf, Candace Kovacic-Fleischer

Candace Kovacic-Fleischer

INTRODUCTION: When I began teaching in 1981, I was assigned two separate Remedies courses to teach during the fall: Equitable Remedies and Legal and Extraordinary Remedies. For the Equitable course, I chose the text Leavell, Love & Nelson, Equitable Remedies, Restitution and Damages (3d ed. 1980) and for the Legal and Extraordinary course, York and Bauman, Remedies (3d ed. 1979). I was not sure what "extraordinary remedies" were if they were not equitable remedies, so I assumed they must be this topic called restitution. Of course, most people refer to equitable remedies as the extraordinary ones, and my two Remedies …

Religious Claims And The Dynamics Of Argument, M. Cathleen Kaveny Dec 2000

Religious Claims And The Dynamics Of Argument, M. Cathleen Kaveny

M. Cathleen Kaveny

This Article investigates the questions whether and when religious claims may enter into public debate about important political issues by considering the purposes of argument in the public square. These purposes include: (1) argument as self-disclosure; (2) argument as persuasion; and (3) argument as bulwark against engagement with the ideas of others. The Article argues that restrictions on the use of religious claims in public deliberations and discussion impede the legitimate functions of public argument as self-disclosing and persuasive activities. In contrast, such restrictions contribute to the use of argument as bulwark, which is arguably destructive to public deliberation in …

La Responsabilidad Civil Por Productos Defectuosos: Perspectivas Para La Aplicación Y El Desarrollo De La Directiva 85/374/Cee, Luis González Vaqué Dec 2000

La Responsabilidad Civil Por Productos Defectuosos: Perspectivas Para La Aplicación Y El Desarrollo De La Directiva 85/374/Cee, Luis González Vaqué

Luis González Vaqué

En 1985, cuando fue adoptada la Directiva 85/374/ CEE, el legislador comunitario partió de la base de que se trataba de una normativa ‘mejorable’, por lo que impuso a la Comisión la tarea de vigilar la eficacia de su aplicación y de proponer, eventualmente, su revisión.

Con todos sus defectos, la Directiva 85/374/CEE contribuye a incrementar el nivel de protección frente a los productos defectuosos, entre otras razones, porque constituye una ‘espada de Damocles’ que incita a los productores a maximizar sus esfuerzos para producir sin riesgos innecesarios para la salud y la integridad humanas y porque, una vez que …

Beyond The Polemic Against Junk Science: Navigating The Oceans That Divide Science And Law With Justice Breyer At The Helm, Joelle A. Moreno Dec 2000

Beyond The Polemic Against Junk Science: Navigating The Oceans That Divide Science And Law With Justice Breyer At The Helm, Joelle A. Moreno

Joelle A. Moreno

The disjuncture between science and law became a significant practical, rather than theoretical, problem in 1993 when the Supreme Court decided Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Daubert was a radical break from a tradition of judicial deference to scientific norms and conventions on questions of the admissibility of scientific evidence. The Court called upon the federal judiciary to slam the gate on all scientific evidence that is not "'scientific knowledge' . . . derived from the scientific method."' Since 1993, the Supreme Court has issued three opinions clarifying Daubert, and countless judges and legal commentators have wrestled with the …
